Get On Down Us Vinilo y CD

Review: One of the most iconic groups of the eighties music scene was Run-DMC, no question. They blew up the world of rap with their raw, swaggering beats and impactful lyrical insights, which often came with a tag-team delivery between numerous band members. Their self-titled album remains a high water mark for the band, and the genre at large, with singles like "Rock Box" and worldwide smash "King Of Rock" still resonating today. This landmark album was the first rap full-length to achieve Gold status, and the band kept the pressure on with two even bigger follow up albums in the years after.

Review: 'Down With The King,' the title track from RUN DMC's 1993 album, marked a pivotal moment in hip-hop. Collaborating with Pete Rock and CL Smooth, the iconic rap trio delivered a bold anthem asserting their dominance. The track's robust production, featuring a dynamic sample of 'Walk on By' by Isaac Hayes, complements the assertive lyricism of RUN DMC. The album it is from is just as vital and now celebrates 30 years with this special limited and numbered coloured vinyl double album, Revered as hip-hop royalty, the group asserted their reign in the rap kingdom with this release and changed the soundscape of the genre forever.

Review: Run-DMC's vital Down With The King album is now a hard to believe three decades old and so Get On Down mark the occasion with this special red & clear vinyl 7" real of its title tune for its 30th Anniversary. The album - their sixth at the time - marked a superb comeback for the band having already hit massive sights with the previous platinum album Tougher Than Leather. Gangsta rap had rather pushed the group to the sidelines but this one brought them back to the fore with its catchy melodies and crunchy beats as well as superb bars. On the flip here is the low slung and classic boom-bap sound of 'Come On Everybody.'
